Greens are not up to normal levels

I have played here 5-6 times. Today was bad. Pace of play was 5 hours.....in Florida thats terrible.

The greens were fuzzy, not mowed tight, sand filled and patchwork everywhere. They have really gotten bad since I played there 2 months back. Don't roll true and the ball bounces all over the place. Burnt spots on every green....

Amazing day out in neat perfect onditions

I arrived early to experience the full TPC course and amenities. The range was mostly sandy but had Callaway in the house to test equipment. The course was challenging and very well maintained. Overall, a great experience.

Play the Palmer instead

With 2 courses to choose from, Saddlebrook course plays second fiddle. I have played the Palmer course twice and it was my first time on the Saddlebrook course. The first green and I believe it was Number 7 are basically garbage. Considering the price I paid the expectation was perfection. Sadly, that was not the case. If you have the option, choose the Palmer course every time.

Challenging course with tight fqirways

The holes up against the water are very pretty. I played from the blue/black tees and couldn't use my driver on a lot of the holes. Used a 4 iron instead as they were tight. Hard to score on the par 5 holes as the are doglegs and you can't go for the green on two. The pace of play was slow but it is what it is when you are 2 people and there are two sets of four balls in front.

First tee time of the day

Booked a tee time early morning. Unfortunately, it had rained all night and we were cart path only. Fairways were pretty wet but we had a great day out. Nice course. More New England style vs. a Florida course which suited me fine.

SUPER LONG

Bring your driver and be prepared to use it on all holes except for par 3's. LONG holes. Tight fairways but straight enough. Lovely course overall. Be prepared to have your game tested.

Wet

I have played this course about 10 times and the conditions never get better. The greens had been aerated recently and putting the ball was near impossible. The course is constantly wet even in the summer probably due to the small streams running around it.

There are yardage markers in the ground but nothing on the sprinkler heads. It is really frustrating. They should just invest in some yardage sticks and put them in the fairways.

Wide open course

Still expensive enough for early in the season and course conditions not great. Greens were very good though. Quick for the time of year.
